Comment on If what they taught us about checks and balances was a lie maybe what they taught us about civil disobedience was a lie too.

Someone has had an incentive to teach you pretty much everything you know. You hope much of it was benevolent, but maybe the teachers were taught to use benevolence that way (by pedagogical teachers before them)… Then there’s this whole thing xalled “The Hodden Curriculum” which is the accental lessons burried in the structures of lessons and systems… And then there’s Labour History, which is like this secret history of workers rights that most schools won’t teach, and it soon becomes obvious that teaching can have ideological and systemic purposes attached, and even hidden or subconscious back flows and scatter effects.

It’s all a bit much.
